Pros:
Exclusive content - and I mean exclusive!
Even the girls here - a good amount are exclusive for this site.
Fine/great video-quality, AVI 1280x720.
Good photo-quality
Easy navigation
Zip for photos also
And a pretty good price: $19.95 for a month.
Cons:
Download of videos comes in zip-files - a little annoying.
Photo-navigation/photo preview is dammed slow. You have to wait for all thumbnail to download in what seems to be the size of full photos.
But foremost cons: A lot of the videos are based on photoshoots.
Bottom Line:
This COULD be a swell site.
But the majority of videos based on photoshoots tends to downgrade it quite a lot.
I like to see some of these fine eateuropean girls doing sexy stuff, strip and masturbating, but it's spoiled in most videos by a guy walking around taking photos and telling the girl how to act and what to do - too bad.
It too bad because Errotica Archives has some very rare girls here. And it's great that some of the rarest ones has a few good videos, like the skinny blond Olga doing two fine beach-videos - maybe the best videos in the whole site.
As a video-freak I'm a little disapointed with most - but I somewhat turned to photos on this special site. And the photos are great - in quality and style.
But bottom line: If you're into videos it's still OK, but just ok. If you're more into photos this site is close to great. If you go for young easteuropean teens.
And again: This site could grow quite a lot with less videos based on photoshoots.

Pros:
-Absolutely gorgeous women
-Photo quality is excelent
-Huge archive of photos
-Fair price for what you get
-Navigation is fairly easy
Cons:
-site not updated quite as often as one would hope
-lighting quality varies between sets
-Videos are interesting (see bottom line)
Bottom Line:
Well... this is one of those sites that you run across and can be amazed by the amount of absolutely gorgeous girls that are on it. The site is primarily a photo site, on the softcore side. This is okay, because in never tries to sell itself otherwise.
Though this is a photo heavy site, there are still some videos. This where my "videos are interesting" comes in. Most sites will do a seperate shoot for the photos and the videos. That's not the case on this site as the average vid is simply a same shoot of the photo set.
If you like softcore sites that are photo heavy, then this is a great site for you! And if you're curious as to a good model to start at; I recomend Danae.

Pros:
+Beautiful Eurobabes most of the time
+Daily updates from August 2005; fewer per month from June 2004
+zip files in 3 sizes (site began with 2000px as "large"; from mid-2006, large is usually 4000px)
+Full length videos in wma, avi, and Quicktime; they look good in full screen mode
Cons:
-Videos are of the photoshoots. While they're not hyper-edited, they tend to be slow and awkward in the motion as you watch the model try different poses. You also see other people (photographer, etc.) in them.
-Incomplete updates are first posted (usually missing the zips); zips are added the same day, though. (A minor complaint, perhaps, but it's not good practice.)
-Lighting is sometimes too dark; sometimes too light. And sometimes blurriness is a problem
Bottom Line:
This is a completely softcore site with NO TOYS. I consider that a plus.
It's also primarily a photo site. A typical month will have 5 videos and 15-16 photosets. The videos are subtitled, so you can brush up on your Czech ;).
I'd definitely recommend it to people who like softcore nude photography. The content buildup and the price of $19.99 a month make it worth it.
You can get a sense of the content by visiting the site and clicking "updates." That's a plus, too. (Wish every site did that.)
With better control of lighting and focus, and fewer of the somewhat boring videos, this site would have gotten a score in the 90's.
Follow-Up:
I've lowered the score from 87 to 81. Gallery thumbs partially "X" out too often; back then fwd buttons needed to fix that. Thumbs are too cropped, not WYSIWYG; must open to see whole pic. Too many pics of models looking away, or just writhing around. Not enough "spark"/errotic appeal, though sometimes there is.
*Newbie reviews and ratings don't count toward a site's overall score/rank until the user reaches the Rookie status level (5 points). This rule is needed to help prevent fake (or heavily biased) profiles and reviews.

Out with the old, in with the new. Errotica Archives now has a new look, which is more visually appealing overall. The thumbs are easier to see in the galleries.
The interface has also changed some, but I don't think it's all for the better. Used to be you could click a photo size (small, medium, or large) and then click a thumb which would show the full pic in a new window; then you could repeat that with other thumbs.
But now if you click "large" and view a pic from a thumb and go back, it RESETS to the smaller default pic size every time. That's a nuisance.
And if you choose "zipped" within the thumbs page, it takes you to the previous "cover" page where the zip links are located. It's a minor bother, I suppose, but why not do it as FemJoy now does, with all of the zip sizes linked right on the thumbs page?
There's also a search engine where you can select characteristics of the models (hair color, etc. -- and even Zodiac sign!). Or you can browse by name, A-Z.
But this is all about the design. Content-wise, and as Rocker pointed out in the previous comment, the photo resolution "sux." I just looked at the Wanda "Rapidly" gallery and found some large pics to have too much blurriness!
So here we've gone again. Another site gets a face lift, but the quality of the content -- the most important thing! -- is still being neglected.
Site offer huge pics, but most of the resolution sux!
No resolution in the big pics, then why big? I can size up a pic with low pixels with freekin MS Picture Manager and get a big pic with crappy resolution.
The models are gorgeous, posed well and lighting is terrific. Fix the resolution problem and you'll have beauty-freeks streaming into your site.
Just joined this site that still not has a review by TBP.
But see Droolers review - which is very accurate, of course.
Since the review things has grown at EA with more videos and photo-sets - and above all: Some new fine models (easteuropeans)
Still have the problems with strange/slow navigation concerning photos - and to many videos based on photoshoots.
But the yummy models in fine quality videos and fair quality photos makes this site worth $19.95 (a month)
